[i]If you are just tuning in here's a link to part one. Quick shoutout to my buddy AltroGamingBros who is working with me to make a crossover. Disclaimer, I do not own any bungie stuff. Now let's begin![/i]
Malex dodged the incoming fire, fanning off a few shots as he rolled. He scooped up Lille and kicked open the door to an abandoned hut. He rushed inside and slammed to door.
[i]Hours earlier[/i]
Malex strolled up to Master Rahool. Prime engram in hand.
Malex: Hey what's up man! (hands engram)
Master Rahool: Here
Malex looked down at the prodigal vest he had gotten a million times before
Malex: Gee, thanks
He walks away disappointed. He was so preoccupied that he bumped into a female hunter walking the other way.
Malex: Oh, excuse me
Huntress: Why don't you watch were you're going!?
Malex: Geez I said excuse me. (grins) You know you look cute when you're mad
Huntress: (blushes) Oh, um really?
Malex: Indeed, (kisses hand) and what might your name be?
Huntress: (blushes harder) Uh, My names Rika
Malex: Rika? Such a lovely name, for such a lovely woman
Rika: (giggles) Well I don't know about that, I mean...
Random guy: HIT THE DECK!!!
The two hunters turn and duck as a flash of solar flame flew over them and crashed into Master Rahool's desk. The two hunters turn back around to see a pint sized Warlock with an equally pint sized Dawnblade.
Malex: Lillie?
Lillie: Mr. Malex?
Lillie's super died out and she ran at Malex, jumping into his arms.
Malex: Well look at you! Was that your first Dawnblade?
Lillie: Uh huh! Ms. Ikora has been helping me to learn Warlock stuff!
Malex: Figures you ended up a Warlock, should've never left you with Ikora
Ikora Rey: I heard that
Malex spun around
Malex: Oh um, hi Ikora. How are you?
Ikora: Just fine. (turns to Lille) Little one, are you bothering Mr. Malex?
Lillie: No Ms. Ikora
Malex: She's fine
Ikora Rey: Well then, would you mind taking her for the day? She could use a few lessons from another class
Malex: Sure thing (looks at Lillie) You hear that? You're gonna hang with me today
Lillie: Yay!
Ikora walked off
Malex: Hey Rika you wanna...
Malex turns around to see Rika had gone
Malex: Huh. Well too bad for her, come on let's go shoot stuff
Lillie: But miss Ikora said I wasn't allowed to shoot guns yet
Malex: So? Come on, let me show you how we Hunters get it done. Peacemaker?
Malex's ghost takes them to orbit
Rika became visible again. She was a nightstalker.
Rika: Ghost was that the target?
Rika's Ghost: The target is Lillie's ghost, not Lillie herself
Rika: Think that Malex guy is the gunslinger who's been causing Drifter so much trouble?
Rika's Ghost: Seeing as how he has The Last Word on his gunbelt I'd say so
Rika: Hmm. Transmat us to the ship, we need to follow them
[i]In the EDZ[/i]
Malex and Lillie transmat down
Malex: Here you go kid (hands her a Does Not Compute)
Lillie: But miss Ikora said...
Malex: Lillie, first thing you need to know about hunters, we don't care what warlocks have to say. Now come on
The two began to walk and Malex took notice of a group of fallen out in the open
Malex: Watch this
He leaped in the air and drew The Last Word. Five fallen dregs hit the ground soon after.
Malex: How about that huh?
Lillie: That was so cool Mr. Malex!
Lillie's ghost appeared
Primrose: We are here to learn sir! Not for you to show off your, gunslinger shenanigans!
Malex's ghost appeared
Peacemaker: What do you mean shenanigans!? My guardian is one of the greatest who ever lived!
Primrose: Oh that's a laugh!
Peacemaker: You wanna go!?
Malex heard a twig snap behind him
Malex: Hey guys...
Primrose: Just like a hunter's ghost to skip straight to violence!
Peacemaker: What's that supposed to mean!?
Malex: Guys...
Primrose: It means you're just an egotistical...!
Malex: Guys!
Peacemaker and Primrose: WHAT!?
Malex: There's somebody watching us
Primrose: I don't sense anything
Malex took a deep look at the ground around his group
Malex: There you are
Malex drew and fired. Hitting the nightstalker in the shoulder.
Rika: Agh!!!
She dropped to one knee and became visible just inches from Primrose, spectral blades in hand.
Malex: Rika?
Rika: Hi...
Malex: What are you doing?
Rika: This!
She lunged at Malex. Bad Move. Malex grabbed her arm and flipped her over his shoulder. Rika's spectral blades ran out so she drew her Crimson and fired. Malex dodged the incoming fire, fanning off a few shots as he rolled. He scooped up Lillie and kicked open the door to an abandoned hut. He rushed inside and slammed the door.
Malex: Peacemaker you here?
Peacemaker flew into the hut's open window
Peacemaker: I am now
He disappeared into Malex's pack
Lillie: Primrose? Primrose where are you?
Malex: Aw crap
He peeked out the window and saw Primrose in Rika's hand. In the other she held a spectral blade.
Rika: Now you end you little
The Golden Gun blast knocked the spectral blade out of her hand.
Rika: What?
Malex: Primrose run!
The ghost wriggled herself out of Rika's grasp and flew towards the hut. Rika pulled another spectral blade. Malex aimed for her head this time.
Primrose made it back to the hut and disappeared into Lillie's pack.
Malex: Lillie get to higher ground before her Ghost puts her back together. I'll take care of the rest.
Lillie: Okay Mr. Malex
[i]A Few Minutes Later[/i]
Rika's ghost finished putting her back together. She sat up
Rika: Oh, my head
Malex saw her get up
Malex: Well, here we go...
He charged out of the hut, firing as he went. He shot the Crimson out of Rika's hand. She lunged at him, a move which Actually caught Malex off guard. She landed a full blown RKO on him, bringing him to the ground. She jumped an spun around, releasing a arrow from her shadowshot bow. Malex was caught in the tether. Rika walked up to him.
Rika: Well now, look at the big bad gunslinger. Not so tough now are you?
She sank a knife into his shoulder
Malex: AH!!!
Rika: Shh, if it's any consolation, it was fun while it lasted.
She cast her spectral blade and went for the kill. Malex's sparrow fell on top of her. The tether ran out.
Malex: What the...?
Peacemaker: You're welcome
Malex: Did you?
Peacemaker: Transmat your sparrow right above Rika you it would fall on her? Yes, I'll remove it now. (transmats it away)
Malex: (pulls knife out of shoulder and draws Last Word) Now you die...
Rika: Wait!
She pulls off her hood and helmet and made a pouty face
Rika: (bats eyelashes) You wouldn't hurt a lady, would you?
Malex: ...
Malex begins to slowly lower his cannon.
Rika: Gotcha
She leaps up into a backflip and cast her spectral blades. But Malex was faster. His Golden Gun turned her to ash.
Malex: Now for your ghost (hears someone crying) Lillie?
He turned and ran up the hill she had retreated to. Rika's ghost revived her. And a stranger transmatted down.
Rika: Man his Golden Gun hurts
[???]: Get up
Rika: You, what are you doing here?
[???]: Nevermind that. Drifter says you're off this job. I'm taking over
Malex sat atop the hill overlooking the two ladies
Rika: Girl you're not even a guardian! Malex will kill you!
[???]: So his name is Malex? Interesting. At any rate, you're needed somewhere else. Drifter got some intel that Diane has been revived as a fresh guardian. Slayer is already on route, you are to join her. We need to get to her before Anna Bray or this, Malex does. Now go.
Malex: Diane is alive? She's a guardian now!? I've got to get down there. Lillie, I need you to stay right here. I need to have a chat with whoever that is. And are you okay?
Lillie: Yes Mr. Malex, I just bumped my knee
Malex: Oh good grief
He began to make his way back down. Still eavesdropping on the conversation.
Rika: Okay fine. Ugh I hate the drifter
[???]: I'm going to tell him you said that
Rika transmats to her ship
[???]: ...(turns around) Oh!
Malex was standing right there.
Malex: Hi
He grabbed her and through her against the wall of that old hut
Malex: What do you want with Lillie?
[???] ...
Malex: Talk!
[???] ...
Malex: Alright then I guess I'll
[???]: I may be willing to talk, for a price
Malex: Go on
[???]: One exotic weapon and I'll talk
Malex: Fine (transmats Huckleberry to his hand) here.
[???]: Ooo, I like it.
Malex: Cool. Now talk
[???]: Drifter wants Lillie's ghost
Malex: And?
[???]: Sorry, that'll cost you extra (points to The Last Word) I want that
Malex: You my Last Word? Well sure I'll give it to ya (Draws and shoots her in the leg)
[???]: AGH!!!
She slid down the wall of the hut. Malex kneeled down.
Malex: Ready to talk?
[???]: You'll never get away with this. You know what happened to the last guy who drew on drifter?
Malex: Yeah some taken captain came and killed him, big deal. (Leans in closer) I was the one who put down Oryx
The stranger's eyes widened
Malex: You gonna talk now?
[???]: Why should I?
Malex: Because you have another leg
[???]: Okay I'll talk. Drifter wants Lillie's ghost dead so that it'll be punished for making a little girl a guardian
Malex: Sounds like him. Now what about Diane being alive?
[???]: I don't know what you're talking about
Malex: (fires into the air)
[???]: Okay okay! Drifter has another mind probe. He's gonna use it to access Diane's memories so he can use her knowledge to outfit his dredgens will golden age gear! And that's all I know I swear!
Malex: Hmm, see was that so hard? (holsters gun) Peacemaker transmat my Huckleberry back to the vault and bring the ship around. You have a nice day now
Malex transmats away
[i]At the tower[/i]
Lillie: Hi Ms. Ikora!
Ikora: Hello little one. Did you have fun?
Lillie: Uh huh. Mr. Malex is so cool!
Ikora: Indeed little one. Now you run along
Lillie: Okay, bye Mr Malex! (runs off)
Ikora: You going after Diane?
Malex: Do you even have to ask?
Ikora: Good luck
Malex: Thanks
[i]On Mars[/i]
Diane: Who are you?
Dredgen Slayer: ...

This one was full of laughs. I loved it!

Some tenses got a little sloppy, but a thoroughly enjoyable read, plenty of action infused with comedy. And Lillie is the second cutest kinderguardian in the Tower (after Petra of course). And please, ignore the downvoting weiners. They have a vendetta against all fanfiction.

[???]: Why should I? Malex: Because you have another leg ^ That was amazing👍👍👍👍

Sorry for it being so compact. Ran out of room so I had to improvise
